Hiking
The Torre del Peñón or Torre del Pirulico is located on the rock that rises above the sea in the foothills of a cliff on the road that connects Mojácar with Carboneras in the area of Playa Macenas, it is the last that we find of these characteristics which, communicating visually with the Torre del Rayo, forms the coastal defense system from Adra to Mojácar. It was built during the Nasrid period (12th to 14th centuries) and was used in the Renaissance (16th century) as a watchtower.
